Pics from yesterdaze

Fridtjof Dieseth and Bjarne Fosskaug were close friends even if they were competitors in motorcycle racing from the late twenties and well into the thirties.
Not only did they ride with great success in Norwegian motorcycle racing, they had motorcycles as their favored leisure activity in general, and spent a lot of time touring Norway.
When competing in races they both rode Harley`s with sidecars, well it is not fully the truth, Dieseth raced Ariels too.
Dieseth competed in car rallies too, in 1934 he competed in rally Monte Carlo.

When touring they both enjoyed their sidecar outfits, Dieseth an Ariel outfit whilst Fosskaug stood true to the Milwaukee marvel.
Here is one pic taken when they pack their camp to ride on, Dieseth`s Ariel is closest to the camera, Fosskaug`s Harley in the background.

Been working as engineer in the drilling bussiness for 10 years, now as drilling rig electrician for another 10 years.
Want to use this blog to show the rest of the world (if anyone should ever be interested) some pics from my local bike scene where I live in Norway and some of the stuff I do to and with my bikes and the people I meet trough this interrest.
